[QUOTE="slas, post: 3050507, member: 39669"] I've hunted the same spot near Wewoka for 3 years now and have never seen a single buck until the other day with my 8 year old son, we saw a little buck. Then this morning at first light I saw a solo silhouette in the distance but couldn't make out what it was. My basic Simmons scope I have on my CVA Wolf wouldn't give me much definition but generally when I saw does there were more than just one. It appeared to be moving my direction so after losing sight I wait patiently where he should have came out. Luckily he did, I could tell it was a buck but still couldn't see him as clear as I'd like. It didn't matter, I had him stopped quartering towards me and looking my way at about 100 yards. I let go with the muzzleloader and saw him jump and run, then it looked like he went down but I couldn't tell for sure. I exited the blind and slowly walked that way. As I got close I saw him jump up and trot off, I could hear him wheezing so I waited a bit and then went in search of a blood trail or him. I was about 20 yards from the neighbors fence and was thinking, no no no. If he'd jumped the fence and made it over to their land I wasn't about to go searching in unfamiliar territory, especially with the chance of someone taking a shot at me. I walked down the fence line starting to feel that sense of despair. Then, just as I came up on a pond there he was, about 5 yards from the fence line. Then I could see his size and rack and, oh my relief. I guess that goes to show you that this time of the year you never know what's going to wonder into your area. Any way to tell how old this guy is? I counted 11 points. [/QUOTE]
